I just got my Covid vaccine, and I'm wondering how long I should wait before it's safe to take painkillers or antihistamines? I really want to avoid any side effects or mess with the vaccine's effectiveness. How many days should I hold off?

I accidentally took an Ecosprin 75mg pill instead of my Montek LC tablet. Should I be worried about this mix-up? I don't have any health problems otherwise. Could you let me know if I might face any issues?

You have accidentally taken Ecosprin 75mg instead of Montek LC tablet. Ecosprin contains aspirin which is a blood thinner and Montek LC is a combination of Montelukast and Levocetirizine used for asthma and allergy symptoms. Since you do not have any health issues, the accidental intake of Ecosprin should not cause any immediate harm. However, it is important to be cautious with medication mix-ups in the future. For now, you can monitor for any signs of stomach upset, nausea, or bleeding. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention.
